Persistent variables

[siroki]

Hello,

Is it possible to set persistent variables that can be stored and re-used?

Example:

On the first 5-min bar, I would like to set a variable bSomeValue = 1. And on the last 5-bar I would like to re-use that bSomeValue variable again.

Is this possible? Or are all variables lost after each completed bar?

Hi siroki,

If the variables are declared in the #region Variables region then the variables will be persistent through each call to OnBarUpdate and will only be set when you set them.

If you are declaring the variables in OnBarUpdate, then these will be re-created and thus reset on every call to OnBarUpdate.

So really it depends on where you are declaring the variable.
